The region is geographically divided into two distinct areas: the northern part, characterized by steep slopes where Syrah is predominantly grown, and the warmer southern section, known for its Grenache-based blends.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs an Appellation Contrôlée, Côtes du Rhône is a vast regional designation that spans the entire valley. It encompasses 171 communes across six departments, stretching from Vienne in the north to Avignon in the south. Granted AOC status in 1937, it stands as France's second-largest AOC. The terroir here is highly diverse, featuring granite soils in the north and a mix of limestone, clay, and pebble gravel in the south. While the appellation produces red, white, and rosé wines, it is primarily recognized for its red wines, which are traditionally based on a blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre, often supplemented by Cinsault and Carignan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 1966 vintage was bottled at 11.5% alcohol in a 720ml format.
